The Book2 Kickstand

The Galaxy Book2 features a built-in kickstand for propping the tablet up on your desk.

Camera

The 8-megapixel main camera offers very good image quality as far as laptop or tablet webcams go, with almost no graininess present in still images taken indoors in low light. There's also a front-facing 5-megapixel camera for Skype sessions.

Connectivity Options

The Galaxy Book2 has two USB Type-C ports, a headphone jack, and an SD-card slot built into the SIM-card tray.

LTE Speed

Thanks in part to Verizon's reliable network and in part to the Snapdragon X20 LTE modem, the Book2 can take advantage of seriously fast mobile data speeds.

Detachable Keyboard

Attach the keyboard cover—complete with miniature touchpad—to the tablet using the magnetized POGO-style connector, and you get a credible substitute for a laptop.

Comfortable Keys

The keys feel very solid and travel a satisfying distance when you press them, but the keyboard cover itself is quite bendy. That results in a significant amount of flex if you type forcefully.

Volume and Power Buttons

These crucial controls are located on the top edge.

AMOLED Display

The display is an AMOLED panel, and its 2,160-by-1,440-pixel resolution lies in between 4K and full HD.
